  Lost Lobster Cottage is absolutely gorgeous, I especially loved all of the lobster themed decorations and mugs! I have historically looked for properties in the Warkworth area but wanted to find a new location for exploring a different part of the coast. Lost Lobster has all the character and charm of what I have come to love about booking with Coquet Cottages. It really is such a lovely cottage, so warm and well equipped. It felt like a family home rather than a holiday home. The kitchen is amazing, even down to the recipe books. The shower and bath are just such a luxury and I made the most of a good deep bath to soothe my tired legs after long beach walks. The beds are super comfortable and it was so nice to sleep in bedding like the ones I have at home. The front and back porches made it so easy make sure our dogs were clean and not bringing sand and muck into the rest of house. Coquet Cottages will always be my go to company for my trips to Northumberland because the standard and attention to detail of all your cottages is beyond brilliant.

  We stayed here for a week. Lost Lobster is a great find, the best of many cottages we have visited in Northumberland. Everything we could possibly need was provided and the property was immaculately clean. Fixtures, fittings and utensils are high quality and the cottage is so comfortable. Two lovely warm bedrooms, one twin and one king size. The lounge is large and comfortable with two gorgeous sofas, log burner and a smart tv. The kitchen, also a good size, it had all we needed. The garden is a good size and fully enclosed. Perfect! This cottage felt more like a home than a holiday cottage. It’s location in Embleton is a few minutes walk from two pubs and a small shop for basic provisions. Our favourite pub in the area is The Ship Inn in Low Newton, five minutes drive or half an hours walk over the dunes or along the beach for the best crab sandwiches in the world … in our opinion. All in all a fabulous cottage, if we could give it more than five stars we would! A credit to its owner and housekeeper. We will return.

  We have had nothing but compliments on our fabulous first time stay in Northumberland. The cottage is without doubt one of the most cosy, stylish and well thought out we have ever stayed in. All the little touches and details really do get noticed and make you feel at home. We loved the scones and doggie hamper. All the quirky Lost Lobster references too! Beds were outstandingly comfortable and the log burner a winner. We loved Embleton and the beach here. Perfect position to explore Northumberland. Had a great meal at The Greys Inn & The Jolly Fisherman and enjoyed a memorable day out to Lindisfarne and Bamburgh. Amble is definitely worth a trip too and we will be visiting Alnwick and Druridge Bay on our way home today. One of the highlights of our week was braving the alarm clock and heading down to Embleton beach for sunrise by the castle. Truly spectacular and would recommend highly. Thanks again for a wonderful stay. PS It was great not to have to bring bottles of shampoo and shaver gel etc.

  We’ve had a wonderful week here. Only one wet outing to recall! Thank you for the lovely comfortable cottage! We love the decor, It’s a quiet location. And right on the doorstep of this fabulous coastline. Trips out Included: A walk to Craster past the lovely setting of Dunstanburgh Castle. A walk to Low Newton. Ship Inn for a brew and Crab Sandwich. A trip to Rothbury. Views across Cheviots and Coastline were breathtaking. And then a visit to Craigside house and tea rooms. A trip to Alnmouth and a walk up the beach to the Gold Club and returned along the Clifftop then to Barter Books. A 2nd trip to Craigside and a walk around the two lakes with a picnic by the lake. Evening meals were enjoyed at the Greys Inn and Dunstanburgh Castle Hotel. The Greys Inn is a good spot for Beer Lovers. Interesting locals. We will definitely be back as it is a great base to explore Northumberland.

  If one of your holiday rules is to never stay anywhere that’s not as good as or better than home, Lost Lobster Cottage doesn’t disappoint. The spacious cottage is comfortable and stylish, cosy and homely, with everything you need to relax and de-stress, the perfect holiday bolt hole. It’s furnished and decorated to a very high standard and with great care and has a selection of books and games for rainy day relaxation. Perfect for dogs, with loads of towels, it has a hallway that’s great to dry off, spare leads, dog bowls and comfy spots to laze about. Buddy and Clarice loved it!  The garden is a quiet sun trap, perfect for watching the birds, or the cricket in summer. Embleton is a pretty village with three places to eat within walking distance, as well as a well stocked shop and stunning coastline and walks on the doorstep. Not sure how it could be any better.
